Abstract
In recent years, the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery has witnessed a remarkable transformation resulting from advances in additive manufacturing. Better known as "3 dimensional (3D) printing," this technology offers unprecedented precision and customization in implant treatment procedures. This technology has allowed providers to efficiently fabricate highly accurate dental models, surgical guides, and prosthetic components. The 3D printing in dental surgery has paved the way for more personalized and efficient full-arch implant treatment. Moreover, the ability to iterate designs quickly allows for rapid prototyping and adjustments based on patient-specific anatomic variations and preferences.
